This video is so good. I appreciate you making it and telling it like it is. I agree and second everything you have said. As someone who also works in a production van worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, I laugh every time someone complains about what the Yololiv products can't do or didn't do. Yolo is the best value for money around 👌
Great video Rob......I have and use the Yolobox Pro to stream at funeral homes. A lot of funeral homes don't have this service so it has been a option to use.
I have a mini and I shoot soccer games, how would I make money doing that? I really like the one about the news eng, what platform do you use to stream it to so the channel can latch on to it? Great video!
Ok - that thing has COST me more than 10k! And yes - I'll pay 6000 for one that would actually work right, too. And I do agree they should stop adding more features - put please get the bugs out. Why: It doesn't work on PAL anymore. But it used to! After a firmware update, where they've locked the output to 30 fps, they basically introduced "F U Europe". They f... ruined a working product for all PAL users with a firmware update. You feed it 25 FPS and you get +- 15 out on the HDMI out. Super jerky output if you use a third party encoder from LiveU or Terradek. It looses the connection (you get the spinning wheel on the input) if you have to change batteries on your cameras (which after 6 hours does have to happen). You basically go blind. Had it freeze at times (that's where it cost me money). Their bonding, when run for more than 4 hours constantly, randomly stops working - no more signal out to the audience, meanwhile YB happily reports 0 dropped frames and you don't witness until you get angry messenges through your chat. I am not taking it on paid jobs anymore.
Thanks for your comment and feedback here. I'm not a PAL region and I haven't experienced the issues you are discussing, including the ones with bonding. Of course I have had to restart the unit from time to time, but no more than a laptop. My experience has been very good and my interactions with YoloLiv have been awesome. I can appreciate your frustration with the issues you have experienced and with the "downgrades" to the firmware making it more difficult for you to use in your region. I'll talk with YoloLiv about your comment and see if I can get an answer for the firmware stuff and bonding. I agree, if I experienced the issues you are reporting, I wouldn't use it either. I'm thinking a lot of your experiences may not be widespread. If you haven't talked to Frank, give him a try. They are very helpful. If you have talked with him, let me know what he said. I'd like to hear about that experience. Cheers.

You nailed every point. All the Yolobox products are amazing.
